He's lain in the hospital a few hours, all of which seem a blur. There was Daedalus giving him new clothes, and nurses checking his basics, though he told them again and again he was perfectly healthy. There were promises of his therapist in the morning, along with his NV, because they took that away too-- but rest for now, he was told, just sleep and rest, you're exhausted, sleep until the morning and then we'll get everyone you want.

He doesn't fight them too much. Somewhat because he's exhausted and sick, but mostly because he knows he doesn't have to call Sirius. He had begged Batman to text Sirius, at least, to let him know; the man wouldn't have denied him that. So Sirius knows where he is, and Sirius will come.

That sounds familiar, doesn't it? something nasty whispers in the back of his head, and Jack scowls, forcing it away. The door clicks open a few seconds later, as if his best friend had been summoned by that thought, and Jack sits up.

"Hullo," he whispers, giving Sirius an exhausted grimace that was meant to be a smile. "Fancy seein' you here."
